She also made the amazing cover for this book!
Zahra Reizen is an art historian currently working at The British Museum, as their Curator and Heritage Manager in charge of their latest exhibition.
The newly archived Ancient Egyptian artifacts have been placed in the new exhibition of the recently discovered mummy of Pharaoh Ahmesseker. Researchers have dated and related him back to King Tutankhamun allowing historians to have a deeper understanding of Pharaoh Ahmesseker's downfall and ultimately his death.
But in these artifacts lies a mystery tangled in deceit and treachery, which only Zahra can solve.
Although it won't be that easy.
Enter Death, a God she didn't know existed interfering with her quest as she finds herself tempting Death and testing fate.
Will she save this doomed Pharaoh before it's too late? Or will she lose herself trying?

The Solar Princess
Kingship, the ultimate power in the ancient world. To the Egyptians, it was a power passed through the female line. Only the husband of the Solar Princess could be king. A recently discovered tomb in 1883 opens a glimpse into the depths of political ambisions and power plays from centuries before. When the gods dabble, the horrors of the past have a way of coming back to haunt the world once again. ********** This is a short story. I hope you like it. I would love to hear feedback on this. I set this as mature just to be sure. I don't give overly explicit details of violence or sex, however, the story does delve into topics of a more mature nature. It is also a work of fiction that I wrote. Please do not copy any part of this story. I do not own the rights to the photos posted. Those are just images I found online and the rights go to the original owners. Thank you. As for the names of the characters, I pulled all of the names during the historical periods from actual history. So, I am sorry if the names are odd or difficult to follow, it is set during a specific reign and the historical people around the royal palace. I really enjoy writing from actual history as much as possible when I do delve into history. If people like this, I may try to work on a longer story of a historical romance in the Ottoman courts.Complete![Jewel Of The Nile [COMPLETE]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/95498924-256-k974807.jpg)

Cursed Times - Only Yesterday! Sequel to Wattys 2015 winner!
By accident rather than design, Trueth - one of the last European witches - finds herself in an ancient Egyptian civilisation. It isn't quite what she has expected - for one thing this place is as full of magic as it is lacking in decent showers. Instead, there is evil lurking just below the surface of the Nile. Together with the friends and family she found in 'Cursed Times - What Now?', Trueth will need to embark on yet another world-saving adventure. One that hopefully does not end in a romantic shipping-wreck. From pyramids, tombs and temples - as well as a palace governed by a randy fourteen-year-old Pharaoh - her journey will ultimately take her to the mists of the North and towards her people. With or without a man at her side. 'Only Yesterday' can be read as standalone adventure novel, or as part of the 'Cursed Times' Series. Warning: In 'Cursed Times - What Now?' all you needed was popcorn. Now you need something stronger - much stronger! === Copyright information, given the recent acts of content piracy: All copyrights of the texts are mine exclusively.

A young queen Siri rules over Egypt as pharaoh and a strange turn of events could shape the entire future of Egypt....

Silver Pharaoh
In the heart of Cairo, young archaeologist Selene Carter never imagined that a lecture would change her fate forever. When her professor reveals the secrets of the Silver Pharaoh-Psusennes I, buried in a rare silver sarcophagus-Selene is drawn into a mystery older than empires. Among scarab amulets, golden sandals, and hieroglyphic warnings etched into stone, whispers of a curse resurface: "Whoever breaks my sleep, I will follow beyond death." As Selene and her new companion Damien uncover truths hidden in ancient texts, the Silver Pharaoh begins to awaken. Obsessed, he sees in Selene the reflection of a queen he lost thousands of years ago. But jealousy burns close-Clara, Selene's friend turned rival, watches as the Pharaoh's gaze lingers too long on Selene, and her envy spirals into betrayal. Between myth and history, love and possession, Selene must face the haunting truth: some pharaohs do not rest peacefully. And some curses are written not on stone, but on the heart. ✨ A gothic blend of history, archaeology, and dark romance, Silver Pharaoh is a tale of jealousy, obsession, and a love powerful enough to defy death itself.SeleComplete

The Exhibit
For those who love Egypt, Egyptology and romance! Dr. Hannah Browning is the head Egyptologist at the British Museum in London. She is the only American in the institution and she knows her stuff, having gone to Egypt over a dozen times for excavations, and having completed doctorates in Egyptology, Archaeology, and Anthropology. Her expertise and people skills are tested, though, when the museum recruits a young and intelligent Egyptologist from the Cairo Museum in Egypt, Dr. Edward Zuberi. He is to assist Hannah in preparing artifacts that were found in the famous Ahkmenrah Exhibition in Luxor, Egypt for the new Ahkmenrah exhibit in the museum... but difficulties come about in starting up this new exhibit when head-butting opinions, theft, threatening, and even romance, arises. Disclaimer: The Egyptian kings that are mentioned in the story are made up, and some details about Egyptian history may be wrong. I'm still researching.Complete
